A "point of interest" is ordinarily a location indicated by a sign on the highway or an arrow on the map. This collection of work posits another reality: memory, meaning and importance are shaped by conversation, feelings and location.

This summer I rode my bike from Alabama to San Francisco. It was fun. It was also hard. I learned that sometimes a thing can feel one way and the opposite of that way at the same time.

This work is compiled of words and ideas, some of which are mine and some of which belong to other people. These drawings are a collaboration with a bunch of strangers who recently became part of the story of my path through the middle of America.

This collection of work was installed at Stumptown Coffee on SE Division Street in Portland.
